Speed and accuracy are essential for mitigating threats before they escalate. CodeHunter enables organizations to drastically improve their triage and response times by generating analysis verdicts in addition to providing actionable insights on the scanned file. Analysis verdicts serve as an “easy button” for SOC teams to streamline threat prioritization and response.
Prioritization and Categorization of Threats
When SOC teams are bombarded with an overwhelming number of alerts, it becomes challenging to determine which threats require immediate attention. Verdicts help by quickly identifying which alerts are genuine threats and categorizing them based on their severity. This helps SOC teams focus on the most critical issues first, reducing noise and allowing for a more structured response. Prioritization ensures that resources are deployed effectively and that the most dangerous threats are addressed swiftly.
Context is King
When it comes to making well-informed decisions, context is everything. CodeHunter enhances this aspect by mapping cyber threats to the MITRE ATT&CK framework. The MITRE framework categorizes cyber adversary tactics, techniques, and procedures (TTPs) that are crucial for understanding the nature of a threat. By leveraging CodeHunter, SOC teams can view a comprehensive review of scanned files, helping them understand the potential attack path and impact of threats.
Up-Skill Employees
Contextual information empowers teams to make smarter remediation decisions, even if they lack deep cybersecurity expertise. For less experienced SOC members, the value is even more pronounced. CodeHunter deep file analysisi and the verdicts it provides lends the necessary context to enable general SOC analysts to escalate and/or prioritize incidents based on established workflows. These workflows, enriched by threat mapping and actionable intelligence, bridge the knowledge gap of less experienced personnel and allows even junior analysts to effectively respond to threats in a timely manner.
Time and Cost Efficiency: Freeing Up Resources
By proving clear verdicts on every file customers can reduce the time and cost of manual file analysis.Instead of spending hours investigating every alert, SOC teams can rely on the verdicts to prioritize the most critical threats, leverage the automated reverse engineering analysis, freeing up team members’ time to work on other mission-critical tasks. This increases efficiency and lowers operational costs by reducing the need to hire specialized analysts to handle every incident.
Verdicts, like those CodeHunter provides, are a game-changer for modern cybersecurity operations. By enabling smarter threat prioritization, offering rich context, and improving workflow efficiency, SOC teams can easily respond faster, reduce costs, and up-level their overall capabilities in mitigating threats.
